Nascimentos were victims of multiple stabbing

Autopsy results have been released following last week’s murders of an elderly Edmonton couple. Joao Nascimento, 93, and his wife Maria, 81, were stabbed to death in their home near 111 street and 111 avenue.

Police found their bodies after a neighbour complained Friday about seeing someone suspicious in the area. A man was arrested at the scene.

Edward Kyle Roberts, 31, is charged with two counts of first degree murder, break and enter, possession of a weapon, and breach of recognizance. (eb)
